you want to reward the results and not the process of how you got there.<\/p>\n<p>Reward performance is where the highest pay goes to those producing the best positive outcomes.\u00a0 Reward those that are moving the needle.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>You must align the rewards to the process of goal setting.\u00a0 The systematic bell curve distribution presents the main issues in companies; you must reward everyone for passing the set goal, with no losers.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>a virtue is a value in action<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Talent is the ability to do something; the reward is what you get out when you do it.\u00a0 The &#8220;it&#8221; is usually beyond the scope of daily work.<\/p>\n<p>Reward people who take risks, fail and learn.\u00a0 If you only credit successful outcomes, you will stunt your organization&#8217;s creativity.\u00a0 Rewards narrow the focus, killing creativity; hence commissioned work is much less creative than non-commissioned work.<\/p>\n<p>There is no future in saying, &#8220;it cannot be done.&#8221; to double your success rate, you will have to double your failure rate.\u00a0 We want an organization&#8217;s bias to change and destroy the old.\u00a0 We must reward change or learn about evolution.<\/p>\n<p>The best reward or consequence is <em>favorable, comes immediate, and is certain<\/em>, whereas the worst is negative, uncertain what is the reward and future planned to be given.<\/p>\n<p>The golden banana award comes from a story of an immediate reward, it must be given on the spot.\u00a0 It came about when a Hewlett-Packard engineer burst into his manager&#8217;s office in Palo Alto, California, to announce he&#8217;d just found the solution to a problem the group had been struggling with for many weeks.\u00a0 His manager quickly groped around his desk for some item to acknowledge the accomplishment and handed the employee a banana from his lunch with the words: &#8220;Well done!\u00a0 Congratulations!&#8221; At first, the employee was puzzled, but over time the Golden Banana Award became one of the most prestigious honors bestowed on an inventive employee.<\/p>\n<h2>You can get lots of people to take photos and post them to social media by rewarding wine heads with a corkscrew.\u00a0<\/h2>\n<p>People find the reward &#8220;attractive, easy, and obvious.&#8221; Choose a reward that fortifies and fits the identity of the wine head.\u00a0 5G networks and high-grade camera phones make accomplishing the task an easy and attractive reward.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The reward comes in many forms beyond money.\u00a0 In addition to existing awards and rewards, send people to more conferences, and you can give fewer raises.\u00a0 2 things are accomplished simultaneously, &#8220;I notice and appreciate you&#8221;
